“In the arena of human life, the honors and rewards fall to those who show their good qualities in action.” — Aristotle
Congratulations on your acceptance to the University of Georgia! Your acceptance suggests you share many of the same skills and abilities that have served the many thousands of graduates of UGA preceding you. Receipt of this email indicates you have been identified as a candidate for a prestigious award available to incoming students.
As a current student at UGA, we have found that successful students are ones who attach importance to learning and testing leadership skills, applying classroom teachings, and establishing strong friendships with peers who share similar values. Our fraternity, Sigma Phi Epsilon, believes that learning how to balance roles and activities, like those in college, is one of the most important life skills one can attain. We believe that recognizing students who exhibit all-around excellence is one way to promote this important idea. Therefore, we are sponsoring the Balanced Man Scholarship in the amount of four $1500 scholarships to the top four applicants. These scholarships are being offered to incoming male students who have excelled in the development of a Sound Mind and a Sound Body during their high school careers. Our aim is to reward men who exemplify the qualities of a leader, scholar, athlete, and gentleman, as we believe these are essential to leading a balanced life.
To qualify, you must be an incoming male student to the University of Georgia in the 2017-2018 school year. Submit the application, along with a photo of yourself, emailed by May 27th, 2017 to:
